Bryan Price says Reds unlikely to name a closer

GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- With Aroldis Chapman out for the the foreseeable future and Jonathan Broxton and Sean Marshall joining him on the disabled list to start the season, Reds manager Bryan Price said won't name a closer.

"I think anyone that we have that have been with us -- the guys you can look on the board, you look at (J.J.) Hoover, (Sam) LeCure, (Logan) Ondrusek, (Manny) Parra, it looks like Simon will probably start in our rotation -- I think any of those guys are capable of doing it," Price said. "At this point, I'm not sure I want to name one guy or if we'll situationally pitch until we get to the ninth inning and see what's left standing in the bullpen. At this point in time, I have confidence in the guys I know are going to make our club. We know that Broxton will hopefully be ready in short order, within that first week of the season. But then again, we have to get him acclimated to being back in the big leagues. At this point in time, I'm not going to name a closer, we may never name a closer, I'm not sure yet."
